Hi Andrew, yes, king time indeed.
Thank you, I appreciate it. This project is in the fledgling planing, procurement, and purchasing phase.
Be well,

Thanks Jeff at this stage
The scenarios have been written and are yet to be playested, we have drafted and printed off unit cards that have been laminated. This will speed up the games plus have visual impact for participants and army organisational cards are being drafted.
All organisers are finishing of their last units and getting them ready to run there are 6 sides being finalised - Bokhara, Turks, White Russians, 2 x red Russians and a British force that can be fielded as a British northwest frontier army or as Dunster force.
We have had a local hobby supplier design and produce custom Perspex bomb templates - these are nice game aids.
The scenery for the three leading scenarios is almost complete with two oil towers still to complete and the owner of the majority of the city terrain has been busy wood putting the buildings to be used for Bukhara it self getting them ready for a final texture surface to be applied which will happen in the not to distant future
So we are very close to running
It has been a great effort by all

There will be more units, possibilities and options available for each player to select at the event than can possibly be fielded but this is so that every body will have choice allowing for armies to be modified as needed to suit games, opponents encountered and playing styles
To date all army test runs hVe resulted in some really enjoyable games - it has been a hoot so far and we expect the event to be no different

Andrew, outstanding references, that’s just what I needed for motivation! I’ve got several toy Matchbox vehicles of yesteryear that I plan to convert.

Good evening all, following is a description and photos from Doc Smiths run through od scenarios 3 last night - sorry I can post this scenario yet
The scenario played fairly well with Martin's Bolsheviks caming up against Doc's mobile British Dunsterforce. Both sides were evenly balanced with air support (Biggles Camel vs Bolshie Spad).
The Brits opted for less infantry a second cavalry regt and two AC's. Both sides had a gun and HMG supports. during the game the Brits managed to occupy all three oil rigs. The Reds took the oil workers town and one end of an oil rig but couldn't quite manage to get in, with both sides suffered heavy losses in cavalry, the Red unit being wiped out by the Yeomanry in hand-to-hand.
The Red infantry and Red Spad wiped 11 of 14 Indian lancers, leaving them with two shocks but grimly holding on. One unit of Scots suffered 50% casualties but still managed to get into and hold the furthest rig on the table. The Red's Cheka managed to do the same in the adjacent worker's town and inflict heavy losses on the Yeomanry by the end of the battle. The British camel never made it onto the board so the Red Spad ruled the skies over the table, while the Red tank couldn't hit at thing this time despite shells fleying everywhere, no oil rigs were blown up much to the relief of the British units occupying them!

Here is a small selection of photos from the Turk/German game vs White Russians this game being tough between two brothers
In the scenario, the turks blocked the bridge with a heroic Turkish armoured car and covered the bridge and it’s approaches with 2 field guns. This quickly resulted in suppression’s all round. to break this impasse the whites rolled up their MkIV but even this vehicle through successive hits was overcome as the tank crew eventually bailed out
Once the Turkish armoured car was destroyed and then it became an infantry slug fest with bombs at 20 paces.
A cavalry action at a the river crossing was initially indecisive with both sides facing off, finally being forces as the white sent their first cavalry force across the river, which was massacred by charging Turkish lancers.
Both sides deployed their planes the white albatross taking out the Turkish armoured car, and the Turkish plane bombing and suppressed Russian units.
Using scenario victory conditions it was a narrow White Russian victory despite the turks being in better condition by the end of the game
